This chapter examines the Allied forces' counterattack from the southern shoulder of the Battle of the Bulge. It discusses the combined offensive launched by George S. Patton's five divisions on a front extending from the Luxembourg border with Germany to just inside Belgium some thirty-five miles farther west. It describes this engagement which lasted until January 1945 and the conditions of local residents and the number of civilian casualties.
